Episode Details

What are we missing when we call these tragedies “isolated incidents”?

In this powerful and necessary episode of Rethinking Freedom, Aya Fubara Eneli confronts the growing pattern of homicide-suicides involving women—particularly Black women—and places these tragedies within a broader global and systemic context.

From recent cases to the staggering reality that 51,000 women and girls were killed by intimate partners or family members in 2023, this episode challenges us to move beyond headlines and ask deeper questions about power, patriarchy, mental health, and accountability.

This is not just a conversation—it is a call to awareness, accountability, and transformation.
